Pet Travel Cage

[kurnell]

Has anyone ever seen pet travel cages for larger dogs in Thailand. Or, alternatively, has anyone ever had one made?

Dont know about a cage, but for a great dane think you would need a big crate...LOL

That's hilarious. Where do you test you new material, at funerals?

I've travelled with a medium sized dog and had to check out all sorts of cages.

Rather doubt if there is a commercial one for a dog of that size. You might be able to make a crate suitable, or ask the airline about it. I know that sometimes they do have to ship livestock, so horses and cattle make it.

If you are making one big enough for a Great Dane, why not make it a bit bigger and then you could fit the whole family in as well, then he won't be lonely.

Lots of useful advise here I must say. You chaps ever thought about getting a job?

For future reference, there is a supplier in Bangkok called Shamu Shamu. You can google then or PM me for details.

moving to pets...

yes there are travel crates even for great danes but im sure they will cost an arm and a leg;

i dont think u can make your own as airlines have strict criteria; why not try to contact breeders of large dogs (mastiffs etc) that go to shows, they probably have one u can rent/buy ...

im sure the ever helpful nienke might have a clue also, try pm'ing her....

also, since large dogs get bloat, u might want to check with vets if you are shipping your dane as the time they are in crate they pant a lot and are stressed out...
